Varun Dhawan clears air on Jacqueline Fernandez's Kirpan controversy

After the teaser of 'Sau tarah ke' was released, Sikh community sought immediate removal of the song from the film 'Dishoom,' reason being the dagger which was wrapped around the waist of Jacqueline in the song. The dagger apparently looked like the Kirpan which is one of the five compulsory Kakaars worn by a practising Sikhism and making a mockery of the sacredness of the religious symbols of the Kirpan only added fuel to the fire. However at the launch of the song, Varun Dhawan, who plays the protagonist in the film along with John Abraham, cleared the air saying, "That isn't a Kirpan. We have shot this song in Morocco. It is an Arabian dagger. My brother and I are Punjabis so we wouldn't do anything like that."
